Repetiríamos sin duda

9.0

Dormimos en la habitación tradicional japonesa, en futones. La verdad que nos sorprendió a bien, estuvimos muy cómodos. Tienen una zona común con comedor y salón donde nos dejaron ver la final del mundial. El personal es super amable. Teníamos baño en la habitación.

Las paredes son finas y se oye bastante las habitaciones de al lado pero en la recepción hay un cuenco con tapones gratis. Quizas pondría alguna toalla más en el wc!

Tout était parfait, les hôtes étaient très à l'écoute et les espaces communs très agréables. Nous avons adoré notre séjour à Takayama. Le logement est très proche du centre et dispose de toutes les commodités nécessaires. Mention spéciale pour le super latte ! Merci pour tout !

Logement pratique et agréable. Je recommande.

9.0

Belle chambre avec futons. Accueil sympathique. Ambiance auberge de jeunesse, avec grande cuisine et salle commune. Beaucoup de recommandations de restaurants. Possibilité de se garer à proximité (avec supplément). Situé à une dizaine de minutes à pied du centre-ville. 7 eleven juste à côté.

Cómoda guesthouse en Takayama

9.0

Las instalaciones son muy cómodas, tiene una buena zona de cocina, comedor y un salón donde estuvimos muy agusto. El personal es muy amable, reservé con ellos el parking por 1000 yen al día porque en Takayama no se puede aparcar en cualquier sitio. La habitación superior era sencilla pero amplia. No está en pleno centro pero se puede ir perfectamente andando.

La habitación era sencilla pero era evidente en una guesthouse, era lo que me esperaba.

We liked the hostel very much and will definitely come back

10.0

The location is very close to the station and old town. The kitchen is spacious and great for cooking. The common area has toys and books for kids. Very family friendly place.

It‘s a coin washing machine and dryer. The dryer isn’t the best. Keep this in mind when planning your washing stops
